Greetings from the Critique Club Stan!

First off, I like her placement in the image and of course the title is great. Her expression is priceless and you captured it nicely.

As far as technicals go, the color seems a bit too saturated. Also, you might have had to expose the way you did to bring her out but it has blown the background, her right arm and leg out in the process. You'll also need to take advantage of the 640 pixels. When you use anything much smaller you already start out at a disadvatnge with the voters.

Overall a good capture of the expression.

Thanks for the opportunity to critique this image Stan.

Cheers - Phil

This seems more of a candid than a portrait. Focus is a little off. Colors are vibrant.

Nice idea/photo, try to avoid photographing direct light sources to prevent a faded photo. The reflections and water, however, are well caught. 8

The composition is wonderful. her stern little expression tells me she doesn't know she is being photographed... the crop is one I never would have thought of doing, yet it works in this case.

cute girl, very cute. the red channel seems to be very overexposed though. quite a few blow-out points. keep shooting, i'm sure you'll get plenty of good shots of this little cutie.

Maybe a different angle. The light is actually a little distracting.

I like the idea, and her expression and the bright colours, but I'm not sure I like the blown out bits behind the girl

I think this is a great 'poster' photo.. Kids around her age would want to see the movie if they saw this shot.. Really good job of catching her with that expression... I like the motion blur in her hands.. one suggestion I would make, and it's not major, is her dress on the left looks a little blown which causes it to merge into the bg... but the overall feeling of this photo makes that unimportant.
